Method

Tip the potatoes into a pan of water,
bring to the boil, simmer for 2 mins, then
drain. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying
pan. Add the potatoes and sizzle gently
for 20 mins, tossing occasionally, until
golden and crispy all over. When the
potatoes are cooked, add the garlic to
the pan and fry for 1 min more. Finally,
toss through the parsley, season with
sea salt and set aside.

Meanwhile, rub the steaks with a
drizzle of oil, then press in the black
pepper. Heat a griddle pan until hot,
and cook the steaks to your liking
(2½ mins each side for medium rare,
3½ mins for medium, 4½ mins for
well done). Leave steaks to rest for
5 mins, then top with a knob of butter
and serve with the potatoes and some
watercress salad.
